OLD FARMERS ALMANAC.

The 'Old Farmer's Almanac' is not an individual author but a pseudonymous persona created by Robert B. Thomas, who founded and first published the almanac in 1792 in North America. It has been continuously published since then, offering long-range weather predictions, gardening advice, astronomical data, recipes, and folklore, making it the oldest continuously published periodical in North America. The publication follows the tradition of earlier American almanacs like Benjamin Franklin’s Poor Richard's Almanack and is currently issued by Yankee Publishing Inc.[2][3]
